Download or read book Railroads written by William Z. Ripley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railroads: Rates and Regulation It is this helpless and unorganized general public, always in need of an advocate, which, perhaps, most strongly appeals to the academic mind. If there be lack of judicial poise in this regard, it is, at all events, palliated by free confession in advance. Nor is the history of the assumption by public authority of its inherent right to control railroads, as narrow an interest as it at first appears. Transportation, as a service, is the commodity produced by common carriers. The manner in which the price of this commodity has been brought under governmental regulation has a direct bearing upon another problem just beginning to open up; namely that of the con trol by the state of the prices of other things. It is not unlikely, in my judgment, that the final solution of the so called Trust Problem in the United States, whether for good or ill, may ultimately contain as one important feature, the determination by governmental authority of reasonable prices for such prime necessities of life as milk, ice, coal, sugar and oil, when produced under monopolistic conditions. This View is shared by my colleague Professor Taussig in his Principles of Economics. It is also distinctly set forth by President Van Hise of the University of Wisconsin, in his recent Con centration and Control. When the seed of such an industrial policy is planted, as I believe it possible in time, the soil will have been richly prepared for its reception by our experience in the determination of reasonable charges for the services of railroads and other public utilities.

Book The Law of Interstate Commerce and Its Federal Regulation  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Law of Interstate Commerce and Its Federal Regulation Classic Reprint written by Frederick Newton Judson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Interstate Commerce and Its Federal Regulation The first edition of this book was published in May, 1905, and a supplement thereto in August, 1906, after the adoption of the amendments of that year to the Interstate Commerce Act. To such an extent has the law of Interstate Commerce and its federal regulation been developed and expanded during the intervening years, not only through judicial construction, but through far-reaching statutory changes, that a new edition is now required not only because much must be added, but also for the further reason that much of what was then declared to be the law must of necessity be rewritten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Federal Regulation of Railway Rates This series of books owes its existence to the generosity of messrs. Hart, Schaffner, and Marx of Chicago, who have shown a special interest in trying to draw the attention of American youth to the study of economic and commercial subjects, and to encourage the best thinking of the country to investigate the problems which vitally affect the business world of to-day. For this purpose they have delegated to the undersigned Committee the task of selecting topics, making all announcements, and awarding prizes annually for those who wish to compete. In the year ending June 1, 1906, the following topics were assigned: 1. To what extent, and by what administrative body, should the public attempt to control railway rates in interstate commerce? 2. A just and practicable method of taxing railway property. 3. Will the present policy of the labor unions in dealing with non-union men, and the "closed shop," further the interests of the workingmen? 4. Should ship subsidies be offered by the government of the United States? 5. An examination into the economic causes of large fortunes in this country. 6. The influence of credit on the level of prices. 7. The cattle industry in its relation to the ranchman, feeder, packer, railway, and consumer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railroad Regulation In the Middle West the situation was radically diflerent. This country had been opened up rapidly to settlement after the Civil War, through the aid furnished by the construction of railroads and the passage of the Homestead Act. The result was that by the beginning of the seventies, farmers were settled in these agricultural regions, and were dependent absolutely upon the railroads for the disposal of their grain and for the bring ing in of their supplies. The roads were largely financed by eastern and foreign capital, and even to this day the amount of capital invested in railroads by the Middle West is comparatively small. It is always unfortunate for the people of one section of a country to have to pay tribute to another section, and this the inhabitants of the Mid dle West felt that they were doing for the railroad service they were getting. Mis understandings and antagonism naturally developed in the West between the railroads and the public. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prentice-Hall Tax Service for 1919 This allowance is not based upon the difference between the actual war cost of such facilities and what they would have cost at pre-war prices. Obviously the taxpayer is not entitled to recover or extinguish through amortization more than the difference between the war cost of such property and what he can sell the property for after the war, or if he continues to need and use it in his business, what it would have cost him after the war. As the rule is expressed in Article 183 of the Regulations: The total amount to be extinguished by amortization, in general, is the excess of the unextinguished or unrecovered cost of the property over its maximum value (either for sale or for use as part of the plant or equipment of a going business) under stable post war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems in Railway Regulation A democracy settles but one political issue at a time. In the first flush of popular excitement, it is futile to endeavor to give a rational direction to the discussion. Statements founded upon a thorough investigation of the subject matter or upon expert knowledge are ignored. If they are from independent, impartial Observers, they usually contain some propo sitions that are unwelcome to the interests attacked or, if they favor the parties defendant, they are con temned as being either bought or biased. In fact, when one reads the newspaper accounts of such a discussion, it would almost seem that all which had been written on the subject, the result Of experience and reflection, had been written in vain.
